Well spent a day looking at this thing thinking what the hell am I doing has my brain exceeded my skill level again & where do I start.

I have decided the only way forward is from the inside out & from the rear forward, see photo & you may understand why.

I cant fit the body to the chasse without first building the rear inner wheel arches as they extend into the roof & extend to the rear bumper.

So in order to do this I need to fit the body on, in order to fit the body on I need to complete the inside as once fitted I cant work on it.

Get my drift, I'm lost to.

I need to start with the roll cage as there is only half supplied in the kit & go from there.

About time I popped back in to see the 'slicer' or is that bodger in action. Sterling work John, I really do not envy you with this sort of build but you have my kudos and to be honest, if anybody could have a go at this sort of thing, it is defo you. Great work so far, nah, outstanding work so far.

Most people buy a kit and stick it together. You buy one and cut it up into even more bits. LOL

Great work Mr Huggins
